Flight Attendant: On behalf of Pan Am Airlines we'd like to be the
2
first to
3
welcome you to New York City.
4
We'd like to thank you for flying Pan Am.
5
The local time is 6:45 a.m. and the
6
temperature is 89.
7
I've been up all nightOn the redeye flight
8
The dawn's early light
9
Got the skyline bright
10
I'm in the back of a car service
11
My driver's kind of nervous
12
'Cause I'm tokin' on a blunt that's fat
13
You say you know where you at
14
I say I know where I am
15
And if you really want a tip then mister don't get flam
16
I ain't tryin' to be rude and I ain't stressin' you gramps
17
But this shit right here, it be the breakfast of champs
18
I've been tokin' on this since thirteen years old
19
And when I look up at my wall I see platinum and gold
20
And there ain't nobody sneezin' at the money I fold
21
And I ain't here for your pleasin', so put that shit on hold
22
Just keep your mouth shut and get me to the hotel and turn the radio
23
up
24
While I finish this L...

Bell Boy: Welcome back to the Five Seasons Mr. Ford, your usual room
26
is ready
27
and waiting.
28
Let me take your luggage. If you need anything while you're staying,
29
just let
30
me know.
31
Everlast: Good lookin' out. That's for you. I hop out my car, step
32
into the
33
lobby
34
Everybody's on the floor, it's a motherfuckin' robbery
35
The shit's in progress, I can feel the stress
36
I wanna silenty to God how did I get in this mess
37
They tell me to freeze and get down on my knees
38
Between my jewels and my cash, I'm holdin' thirty five G's
39
They told me to run it, so I got bold and I fronted
40
And like Slick Rick said, I kew I shouldn't of done it
41
'Cause now they standin' over me, watchin' me bleed
42
Damn, I got to quit smokin' all this weed
43
There's a pain in my chest, but yo, I must be blessed
44
Because before I faded out I saw the EMS
45
The paramedics, they greet me with some anestheticsThey killin' my
46
pain
47
They screamin' my nameTryin' to keep me in the conscious world
48
I'm thinkin' about my mom, my sister, and my girl
49
I'm prayin' to God don't let this go too far
50
As they rush me into the St. Luke's O.R.
51
They pull the bullets out my chest and give 'em back in a jar
52
Now I'm wearin' this scar 'cause I tried to play hard
53
Doctor: Mr. Ford, I'm afraid I have some bad news for you.
54
Everlast: What are you talkin' about?
55
Doctor: It would appear that one of the bullets grazed your spine and
56
damaged
57
the cord.
58
Everlast: So what are you tryin' to tell me?
59
Doctor: Well, it's safe to say I don't think you'll be jumpin' around
60
anymore.
61
Yo, this can't happen to me, I just can't believe it
62
Trapped in a wheelchair, a paraplegic
63
There ain't no rehab, there ain't no therapy
64
For the rest of my life somebody's gotta take care of me
65
And people stare at me with pity in their eyes
66
And every mornin' I rise to a life of despise
67
And ever night I think I might never rock the mic again
68
'Cause my brain's fucked up on percacet and vicadin
69
Might as well be heroin pulsin' through my veins
70
Gotta kill these pains or blow out my brainsTo free me from these
71
chains
72
I'm trapped in this physical hellTo walk again I just might sell my
73
soul
74
And I'm only twenty somethin' years old (years old)
